-------- ATTENTION --------
When run in stand-alone mode full access to all features is given and
levels do not apply unless the /O command line option is used.
QRDB is being supplied is being supplied in both Non-Fossil and Fossil
versions. The fossil version is in QRDB_FOS.EXE and is included. Some
BBS systems running under a Fossil have found that the non Fossil
version won't work with their system. Also the fossil version will allow
you to use non standard com ports. The Fossil version won't allow you to
hang up on a user, but you can always use that button on the modem. That
is about the only difference you will notice between the fossil and non
fossil versions.
The error message "Cannot execute QRDB.EXE" means that the program does
not have enough memory to operate in. You need at least 414k.
If you get the Error message "QRDBLang.DBF not found" or "QRDB.Dat not
found or Corrupt", make sure you have the environment variable set,
before looking for other problems. Example QRDB=C:\QRDBDIR set it to the
directory that QRDB is located in.
Earlier 3.x versions of QRDB had a problem that sometimes left two keys
to the same type 3 record when a keyfield was edited using QRDB. The old
key and the edited key both pointed to the edited record. If you have
duplicate keys you will have to rebuild the index using the QRDBMgr
program to get rid of them. First use the function: (E)rase QRDB
Index/Data then (B)uild Type 3 DB Index.
The following info was added to the docs, you may have nissed it A
numeric field as a key may have problems indexing. Depending on how the
key field was input. dBase, dBuddy or QRDB. It is suggested that you
don't use a numeric field as a key unless all input is via one system.
The following command line options can be used with QRDB
/R use an RBBS type Dorinfo*.Def
/N# use Dorinfo#.Def instead of the default Dorinfo1.Def
/M Local Monitor is Monochrome
/K include the special Key field Search
/L# Where # is a security level. To force QRDB to use a
particular user security level.
/O Allows a user to be given access to just records
created for him/her.
???????.?CL A CL file name on the command line bypasses the
main menu and goes directly to the database that
is specified.
